There are hundreds of ways to improve your mind power. Some have to
do with the mind-body connection, some with what you eat, and some
with how you train yourself to think. Here is an example of each.
Posture And Mind Power
Your posture affects your thinking process. You can easily prove this
to yourself with a simple experiment. Start by sitting in any chair.
Then slouch, letting your head hang down and looking at the floor.
Now let your mouth hang open. Now, try doing math in your head. Add
large numbers or multiply two-digit numbers - just do whatever math
you can normally do with some difficulty in your mind.
Now for part two. Sit up straight, keep your mouth closed and look
forward or slightly upwards. Try that mental math again. You'll
notice that it's easier to think with this better posture. Keep this
in mind. Whenever you feel that brain fog coming, just sit up
straight and close your mouth.
Watch That Glycemic Index
Diabetics know about the "glycemic index," which rates foods
according to how slowly the carbohydrates are released into the
system. Slower is better, both for diabetics and for those who want
to avoid "brain fog" and think more clearly. Foods that slowly
release sugars into your system (and have a low index rating) include
beans, whole grains, apples, and salads....
